Defund National Public Radio
Christopher Rufo in City Journal plumbs the terminally Woke mind of the woman who pushed Uri Berliner out the door at National Public Radio: What you notice first about [NPR boss Katherine] Maher’s public speech are the buzzwords and phrases: “structural privilege,” “epistemic emergency,” “transit justice,” “non-binary people,” “late-stage capitalism,” “cis white mobility privilege,” “the…

Help DEI to DIE!
DEI statements are today’s loyalty oaths! Aaron Rodgers’s play under center for the New York Jets was only a tad more brief than Ronna McDaniels’ career as an opinionator at MSNBC.  The 24/7 progressive cable news outlet hired the former Republican National Committee chairman on a Friday in March for a wee dram of intellectual diversity, equity, and inclusion. Ms. McDaniel was let go by Tuesday…

Normalizing lies is not patriotic
Even Germany confronted its sins. The Enlightenment philosopher Voltaire warned “Anyone who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.” That describes the presumptive nominee of the Republican party — an organization to which this blogger has devoted his allegiance these past 34 years. Would that the tranch of resolutions submitted to the caucus of WI Second District…

Mr. Alderman, prove your innocence!
Or confirm you’re Woke by taking the word of your accusers! Should “someone with multiple allegations of domestic abuse be in public office?” The alleged abuser is Madison Alder Charles Myadze. That question was posted social media — that on-line kangaroo court where opinions triumph over facts. The accusation is this: two women accuse Ald. Myadze of “physically and emotionally” abusing them.…

Throw away the keys
To car and jail cell! Tiambra Walker is in a place where it is difficult to run down and kill pedestrians and their dogs. The young lady, age 21, is cooling her heels in the Dane County Jail. Her bail was set at $300,000 this week after authorities finally got their mitts on the runaway. But not before she ran down Stephen Fleck, 66, one day in February 2023 while the pedestrian was walking his…

Mainstream news media, you have a diversity problem!
Quit telling us what we need to believe! My old boss Dave Zweifel put into print his thoughts on “How DEI became an insult.” We won’t link because Dave uses an egregious example which does nothing to explain how DEI became an insult, and deservedly so. Here’s a better example: A liberal environmentalist and near-West side Biden supporter told us of the time he reported some local issue to his…

Uncle Joe buys votes of college deadbeats
Again, Big Gummint picks winners and losers! The platform of the Democrat(ic) Party can be summarized in three words: More Free Stuff. While we were distracted by the partial eclipse of the sun Monday, the President of the United States dropped out of the sky to reinforce that single truth here in Madison WI. The irony is that the President chose Madison (Technical) College, not the University…

Big blackout in the sky heralds end times!
Got to be a big portent of something! Total eclipse of the sun! Falling bridges! Famines and earthquakes in all the wrong places! Chemtrails and deadly vaccines! Wars and rumors of war! Nations rising against nation, kingdoms against kingdoms, Republicans against Republicans (and RINOS). False prophets … Open your eyes, people (unless you stare at the sun without welder’s goggles) before the…

We’ll have to settle for just some of the eclipse
Not the totality, darn it! Pulled out our Rand McNally World Atlas (large scale) and poured over the maps of Illinois and Indiana, something we are not wont to do here at Stately Blaska Manor except that Monday 04-08-24 a total eclipse of the sun sweeps across the North American continent from Mexico to Newfoundland. On its journey, it darkens a path 115 miles wide — that’s the “Totality” — for…

Wisconsin became a little more Republican this week
Party building from bottom up! A little potpourri today to fulfill our onerous contract obligations to our investors in North Korea. Quibblers argue that Democrats played mischief in the Republican primary Tuesday 04-02-24 by voting for candidates not named “Trump.” That’s why, they aver, their man lost 21% of the vote to ghost challengers who long ago quit the race. If anything, it’s the other…

Are our politics becoming a for-real blood sport?
Can we keep a civil tongue? Did it begin with the 2011 takeover of the Wisconsin State Capitol over Act 10? Or the Antifa-inspired trashing of Madison’s State Street, the burning of Kenosha and Portland in the Summer 2020? Was the seditious routing of Congress on January 6 the following year an escalation or just more of the same? How much violence can we expect at the national party conventions…

Tuesday's elections offer a lesson
We just don’t know what it is! What can we learn from Tuesday’s election results here in Dane County and throughout Wisconsin? We can’t say because Ol’ Sparky, our Eisenhower-era mainframe computer, is still grinding its gears. We know that voters did approve the two state constitutional amendments banning private money and personnel in the conduct of Wisconsin elections by 54.4% and 58.5%,…

Will Wisconsin embarrass Trump?
In today’s primary election? Pulled the tarp off our Eisenhower-era mainframe computer and fed its biomass digester with crusty, year-old Peeps and gaily painted hard-boiled egg shells. Ol’ Sparky coughed acrid blue smoke before spitting out today’s Wisconsin primary election predix: Donald Trump will garner less than three-fourths of the Republican vote, a huge embarrassment to the part-time…

Social justice warriors bailed out wanted hit & run driver
and don’t care if they flee justice! Blaska asked the man who bailed Tiambra I. Walker out of jail two years ago whether he had any pangs of conscience that the woman is now accused of running down pedestrian Stephen G. Fleck, 66, and his dog, on Schroeder Road in Madison on 02-15-2023. Thanks to police in Peoria IL and the year-long efforts of 100 law enforcement officers from a slew of…

Wisconsin adopts new voting machines
In time for Tuesday’s primary elections! It’s not quite an October Surprise but newly appointed state elections supervisor Mike Gableman this morning unveiled the next best thing. Dogged by accusations of stolen elections, the former state supreme court justice announced that Wisconsin’s optically scanned ballot system will be replaced by a “proven, tamper-proof technology, something that even…

Now even Derrick Van Orden is a RINO!
Takes aim at the nut-case Freedom Caucus! First of all, happy Easter! We’ll post the Lovely Lisa’s traditional Easter brunch in a subsequent post. Know you can’t wait! But we’re overjoyed over the news this morning that U.S. Rep. Derrick Van Orden, Republican from Wisconsin’s La Crosse/Eau Claire Third District, is going after the dysfunctional Freedom Caucus — the whack jobs that have whittled…

Tony Evers protects public schools from reform
School district bosses must be educrats! One does not have to be a Cardinal — or even a priest — to be elected Pope in Rome. (Do gotta be Catholic.)  Wisconsin, on the other hand, demands the leaders of its 386 school districts be selected from the education establishment’s equivalent of the college of cardinals. School district administrators must first be given the zucchetto, biretta, and…
